I feel like I always rank Fats too low, and I hate it, because he's great. It's just that, every time he shows up in a rankdown, the RDs are stacked.

16. Del Shannon - RunawayReleased: 1961-----
Points: 320 Average: 16,84 SD: 9,100 (2nd highest) ----- WA WA WA WA WA. This song is so catchy! It became Del Shannon's biggest hit for a reason. The hook is such and earworm. The organ was simply awesome, and I loooove the instrumental break after the second chorus. Amazing song.

This was coming, so I can't say I'm too disappointed. I'm certainly not as disappointed as I was when The Platters went out bottom five.
It feels like so many people crap on the pre-Beatlemania 60's pop scene, but man, there are a surprisingly large number of great songs from the period.

Even in a rankdown as stacked as this one, I'm pretty sure I would have ranked every major Patsy song top ten.
I'm not even sure which one is my favorite, I love them all equally.

"I Fall to Pieces" is one of the most iconic country songs of all time and I very likely would've put this as my #1.

14. The Crystals - Then He Kissed MeReleased: 1963-----
Points: 302 Average: 15,89 SD: 5,597 (2nd lowest) ----- If someone come and ask me what's the most romantic song ever, this would be one of the first songs that come to mind. You can't get much sweeter than this. Hearing this woman's story of the guy she loved from the moment they first met until she became his bride is too sweet. Wrapped with the happy and sugar-y instrumentation... yeah.

I love this song, though "Dancing in the Street" or "Nowhere to Run" probably would have been in my top ten.

I can't think of this song without thinking of Predator.
My go-to for frenetic energy from Little Richard is "Keep a Knockin'", but this isn't far off.

11. Roy Orbison - Oh, Pretty WomanReleased: 1964-----
Points: 258 Average: 13,58 SD: 6,809 (7th lowest) ----- This song has one of my favorite intros of any songs ever. It's hard not to be hypnotized by the guitars. In fact, the people who worked on the musical instruments all did a great job on attracting the listeners. The song is catchy and Roy is delivering a great performance.

I wrote this off because I assumed it would be a song that I had higher than the movement.  I probably should have put "Black Coffee" in my top ten instead, though I do love "Oh, Pretty Woman" dearly, too. It's not my favorite Orbison song, but it's the quintessential one. 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 6 | 9 | 13 | 15 | 17 22 If the act who performed my 22 were in this RD with a particular song, they would be in or near my top five. |

25. My Guy (28): A nice discovery. She sounds lovely, and the a chorus melody is good, but I found the production and overall melody wasn't as interesting as other songs in this RD. 24. Everyday (24): Nice, tender tune that I've heard a few times before. More interesting production than a handful of songs, but melody and vocals were not as strong to me as others I ranked higher. 23. Black Coffee (27): Another nice discovery. Very nice tone and cool instrumental --but the jazz melody isn't my cup of tea coffee  22. Blue Suede Shoes (4): I've always been a BIG fan of Elvis. I love a lot of his songs, and although this is not in my top 10 Elvis songs, this is still quite a strong song. Attitude, production, melody, all work great to me. Wish it had at least made the top half, but I can't complain at losing my first top 10 in #22 in this strong RD . 21. Somethin' Stupid (14): My mom LOVED Frank Sinatra, so I learned a lot of his songs in my childhood. Stranger In The Night and My Way were our favorites, but this was in my top 5, too. I love the harmonies with Nancy Sinatra, and the melody. 20. It's My Party (18): I've always found this chorus really strong! The verses are not as strong, though... 19. My Baby Just Cares For Me (25): Very nice discovery, too. I believe a few more listens could've made me rank it a bit higher. She sounds gorgeous. It just took me a bit of time to get into the melody. 18. Alone Again Or (17): I had forgotten this song! Great re-discovery. The instrumental and production are VERY strong. The main melody is pretty good, too, but I was missing another melodic section. 17. Blueberry Hill (26): Those vocals and that tone are buttery. Nice instrumental, too, but I liked other melodies a bit more. 16. Runaway (3): I discovered this song in 1987 when pop radio stations back home added it to their regular playlists, thanks to the use of Runaway as the theme song of a very popular TV series "Crime Story". Del Shannon actually re-recorded a new version of this song in 1986. Back home most radio stations played the original over the 1986 version, though. The original version reached the top of my personal chart, and it was in my yearend top 25. This is a classic gem of a song. Vocals, instrumental (especially in the bridge), catchy hook. |
